ooooo... I do wish you'd stop talking about JSF. It sounds so cool that I feel like a kid on Christmas eve who cant wait for Santa to come down the chimney and fill the stocking with presents... ;-)
Where could one get a copy of the source for the JSTL expression language evaluator stuff? Is there something in struts EL I can rip? -----Original Message----- From: Craig R.

In the next EA release, you'll see that the syntax used for model reference expressions has been enhanced to be exactly like a variable reference in the expression language (EL) used by the JSP Standard Tag Library (JSTL) -- indeed, the reference implementation of JavaServer Faces uses the exact same expression evaluator code. So, anything you can address through a JSTL expression today can be the source or destination of model tier data for a JavaServer Faces component. > -Tony Craig -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
